Rapid climatic events and long term cultural change: the case of the Portuguese Upper Paleolithic
In Western Europe, the Upper Paleolithic is marked by clear regional and diachronic technological differences. Some of these are most likely related with human adaptations to the Late Pleistocene environmental shifts. In this paper we focus on the rapid climatic change events and their influence on...
